The night hung heavy with an air of mystery, the moon's silvery glow casting an ethereal light upon the Witch Tribe's sanctuary. Crickets chirped in the distance, their melody intertwining with the rustle of leaves, as if nature itself held its breath in anticipation.

I held Elara close, her warmth against my chest a comforting reminder of the bond we shared.

As we nestled by the flickering flames of our campfire, a rustling in the underbrush drew my attention. My heart skipped a beat, my senses tingling with a mix of curiosity and caution. And then, emerging from the shadows, was a figure I had never expected to see again—Alpha Lucas, flanked by Beta from the Blood Moon Tribe.

My breath caught in my throat as surprise washed over me, Elara's head lifting from my embrace to peer curiously at the unexpected visitors.

    ArianaAs I stood before him, my heart raced in disbelief, absorbing every word that escaped his lips. The revelation that he had divorced my sister five years ago left me stunned, my mind reeling with the implications of his actions. It was a blow that I couldn't even begin to fathom, a choice that had sent shockwaves through both our clans and set the stage for the deteriorating relationship between the Blood Moon Clan and the Silver Moon Clan.My sister, Seraphina, had always been the favored one, bathed in the glow of my father's approval and expectations.

    ArianaSitting by the fire one evening, I couldn't help but bring up the topic that had been gnawing at my curiosity."Gertrude," I began tentatively, "I've heard whispers among the young witches about how some sorcerers use the name of witches to deceive humans. Is that true?"Gertrude's eyes twinkled with a mix of amusement and understanding. She let out a soft chuckle before responding, "Ah, my dear, it seems you have stumbled upon one of the darker truths of our existence."I leaned in, eager to hear more. "Tell me, please. I want to understand."She nodded, her expression growing somber. "You see, there are those who harness the power of magic for their own gain, without understanding or respecting the true nature of our craft. These sorcerers often pose as witches, exploiting the mystique and allure of our abilities to manipulate and deceive.""But why?" I asked, my brow furrowing. "What do they gain from pretending to be witches?"Gertrude let out a sigh, her gaze fixed on the

    ArianaThe gentle morning light filtered through the curtains. My eyes slowly fluttered open, and my heart skipped a beat. Lucas was lying beside me, his peaceful expression softened by the slumber that enveloped him. Memories of the night before came rushing back, my cheeks flushed with a mixture of embarrassment and anticipation.As I moved to sit up, the bed shifted slightly, and I froze. A strong arm snaked around my waist, pulling me back down against a solid, warm chest.

He kept kissing me, murmuring things that I could quite hear. I couldn’t say much of anything or do much of anything as everything started to get hazy, and the warmth of the bath started to make me sleepy.

After dinner, I came to the backyard of the cafeteria.The servants of the Blood Moon Clan were bustling about, attending to various tasks, and I approached one of them with a polite smile. "Excuse me, could you tell me more about the recent happenings in the clan?"The servant, a kind-looking young woman, nodded. "Of course, Luna. In the past few years, there have been some significant changes in the werewolf world. Your sister, Seraphina, she remarried to the Alpha of the Black

I couldn't help but tease Lucas, knowing how he always enjoyed playing along. "Well, darling," I began, "that's something your Papa and I will have to think about."Lucas grinned, his eyes dancing with mischief. "Indeed, Ariana. Maybe we'll have to consult the moon and the stars for the right time."Our daughter, however, was having none of it. She stamped her furry paw on the ground playfully. "Come on, you two!
